In general, this disclosure describes a multi-zone secure AI exchange. The multi-zone secure AI exchange may be implemented in a multi-cloud, multi-data center environment, where each zone may be in a different cloud or data center. The multi-zone secure AI exchange may include a data repository, a data exchange, and shared services. The data repository may be configured to store algorithms and datasets, each having a respective owning user. The data exchange may receive datasets and algorithms from the data repository, and may perform the algorithms to produce output data. Each of the data repository, data exchange, and shared services may have a different level of security. The data repository may implement the highest level of security, allowing the owner user, and only the owning user, to control how their data and algorithms move in and out of the data repository, or are changed while in the data repository.

A central infrastructure monitoring system includes an asset configurator; and a plurality of data center infrastructure monitoring systems each associated with a respective data center of a plurality of geographically distributed data centers that include one or more physical infrastructure assets of a plurality of physical infrastructure assets for enabling system operation within the respective data center. The data center infrastructure monitoring systems are coupled to the central infrastructure monitoring system. The asset configurator is configured to define templates of standard attributes for the plurality of infrastructure assets based on information about the plurality of infrastructure assets of the plurality of data centers, generate infrastructure asset data that logically represents the plurality of physical infrastructure assets based on the defined templates, and associate, via the infrastructure asset data, the physical infrastructure assets within an infrastructure asset hierarchy indicating connections and interdependencies between the plurality of infrastructure assets.

Architecture for data center infrastructure monitoring

In general, techniques for integration of diverse software applications in i) a co-location facility, ii) communication interconnection network facility, or iii) both, are described. For example, a transformation engine for datacenter colocation and network interconnection products may assist in a dynamic i) transformation of commands and ii) data structure translation as well as data structure transformation between a source application (SA) and a target application (TA) via two or more translation assist templates.

Transformation engine for datacenter colocation and network interconnection products

At least one user is designated to manage assets including management delegations, access restrictions, and access permissions. Management responsibilities are applied based on business rules and based on a hierarchical model. The hierarchical model enables a well-defined logical flow of delegations and restrictions with pruning capability. User groups, asset groups, asset trees and asset permissions may be defined. The designated user can manage a single asset or all assets or a subset of assets. An asset may belong to one or more asset groups.

Delegated and restricted asset-based permissions management for co-location facilities

A logical customer organization model is applied to group the individual agreements into separate logical customer organizations, wherein the groupings can be region based groupings, organization groupings and departmental groupings. Unified login identification (ID) model is applied to enable a first user to login to a portal using a first login ID to access a first asset in a first asset group according to a first logical customer organization. The unified login ID model enables the first user to use the same first login ID to access a second asset in the first asset group according to the first logical customer organization. The unified login ID model also enables the first user to login to the portal using a second login ID to access one or more assets in a second asset group according to a second logical customer organization. Each of the first and second logical customer organization may be associated with one or more asset groups and one or more user groups.
